#223 - New Skill: Crow's Mouth
After hearing Bai Cang's words, Chen Sanliang relaxed completely, the last trace of worry in his heart vanished, and his eyes turned towards the direction of the Divine Continent: "I cannot give this world to those despicable people! If I don't make them suffer calamity, it will be difficult to quell the hatred in my heart."
"Next, I have to make a trip to the Pingbian Royal Mansion," Bai Cang said with a smile.
Chen Sanliang's words gave him new ideas, giving him a better plan.
Inside the stone cave of the great tomb,
At this time, the battle had entered a feverish state. Zhang Chen had transformed into flowing water, secretly flowing in the corners of the ground. Before long, he had returned to the center of the battlefield. At this time, the crowd was fighting in a团, jade rulers,宝剑, and flames collided in the air, while Zhang Chen's eyes watched the fighting crowd, hiding in the corner and secretly peeping.
"Now that everyone is fighting in a团, it is my chance. I will take the opportunity to collect all the experience points first." A bright light appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes. The next moment, he transformed into a stream of water and carefully flowed towards the dried-up pond. At the same time, he also wanted to see what secrets were hidden below, where the cursed demon god had gone, and why the cursed demon god had not appeared.
Zhang Chen's heart moved, and the stream of water he transformed into was about to approach secretly, but who knew that the few people fighting there were watching in all directions and listening in all directions. Seeing the sudden appearance of inexplicable water flow, Liu Lin smiled coldly: "Where did this ignorant person come from, daring to snatch food from a tiger's mouth?"
Liu Lin smiled coldly, and the jade ruler flew out of his hand, directly smashing towards the stream of water that Zhang Chen had transformed into.
Zhang Chen didn't dare to be hit by the jade ruler. At this time, seeing the jade ruler flashing with runes of light, smashing towards him, Zhang Chen quickly rolled towards the outside of the cave, but who knew that it was too late after all.
The jade ruler directly smashed on the stream of water that Zhang Chen had transformed into, and then Zhang Chen's skill was broken, transforming from a stream of water back to his original form, lying on the ground with his heart stopped beating, as if he had been directly镇killed by the jade ruler.
And Zhong Xiang, who was fighting with the two people in the distance, twitched at the corner of his mouth when he saw Zhang Chen's dead appearance. After fighting several rounds, how could he not know how difficult Zhang Chen was?
He didn't believe that Liu Lin could directly镇kill Zhang Chen with one ruler!
Although Liu Lin's divine soul cultivation had already stepped into the realm of possession, and he also possessed a mysterious and unpredictable jade ruler, and he could use the power of the jade ruler to deal with Yin God experts, he didn't think he had the ability to suppress Zhang Chen to death.
However, Zhong Xiang did not expose it. Now he and Zhang Chen can be regarded as grasshoppers on the same line, so at this time, he just watched coldly from the sidelines.
"Rumble~"
At this moment, a earth-shattering sound suddenly came, and the entire underground space shook constantly. The underground tomb began to collapse continuously, and rubble kept falling from the sky.
Chen Xu's face changed greatly when he saw this scene: "Everyone, don't fight anymore. The feng shui array has been broken, the earth's magnetic field here is紊乱, and the underground机关陷阱 have lost the support of mysterious power. The cave is about to collapse. Let's get out of here quickly! If we are buried alive here, it will be miserable. Although you all have the protection of mysterious power, your bodies are still fragile. If you are hit by the stones collapsing from the underground cave, you will be smashed into meat paste. If you are buried underground, I am afraid you will be trapped to death here."
As Chen Xu's words fell, the stone walls in the tomb began to crack, and cracks appeared on the surrounding stone walls. The entire stone cave was like an earthquake, the ground shook and the mountains shook constantly, and碎stones kept falling from the high altitude, startling the three people to keep dodging.
The smallest of those碎stones was the size of a basketball. Except for Zhong Xiang, the others, although they also mastered mysterious power, their bodies were still a burden and their weakness.
Moreover, the cracks were getting bigger and bigger, the shaking of the cave was getting bigger and bigger, and the stones falling were getting bigger and bigger. When the entire mountain completely collapsed, I don't know how big the biggest stone would be, and even half of the mountain would collapse. When the overwhelming stones smashed down, everyone present would be smashed to death.
Except for Zhong Xiang, who has mastered the body of immortality!
But even if Zhong Xiang has mastered the body of immortality, but countless stones are piled up together, he can't stretch his body, he will be squeezed into meatloaf alive, and be crushed to death, right?
"Don't fight anymore, why don't we discuss how to divide this coffin?" Liu Lin said.
Zhong Xiang's eyes moved when he heard the words, and he had no opinion. Unexpectedly, Mr. Five Six at this time did not agree, because in his opinion, this coffin and the creation in the coffin should all belong to the Pingbian Royal Mansion. Why should he share it with others?
What if the tomb collapses?
When the time comes, the Pingbian Royal Mansion will send people to dig the tomb out of the ruins.
Therefore, Mr. Five Six's sword light flashed around his body, but he still refused to stop, and insisted on forcing the two of them out.
Seeing that the tomb was collapsing faster and faster, the entire mountain structure had begun to be in岌岌可危, Liu Lin was the first to lose his temper, and after cursing '疯子', he turned his head and ran.
If he runs slowly, I am afraid he will be smashed to death here.
Zhong Xiang also looked at Mr. Five Six with a骂骂咧咧: "Old guy, your Pingbian Royal Mansion wants to eat alone, I am afraid it will break your teeth, I am afraid you don't have such a big appetite."
After saying that, Zhong Xiang transformed into a 肉身 form and ran away. When he passed Zhang Chen's 'corpse', he deliberately stepped on Zhang Chen's 'corpse', and his big feet stepped on Zhang Chen's face unceremoniously, stepping on Zhang Chen's eyes straight.
"This kid is deliberate!" Zhang Chen cursed in his heart: "Good you Zhong Xiang, you dare to tease me like this, see how I deal with you in the future."
Zhang Chen cursed in his heart, and Mr. Five Six, with Zhang Xiaohua in his left hand and Chen Xu on his right shoulder, kept running wildly in the cave. Zhang Xiaohua passed by Zhang Chen's corpse. At this time, Zhang Chen's hair was disheveled, and the other party did not recognize Zhang Chen's face, otherwise he would have to add two knives.
Soon the crowd in the cave quickly evacuated, and then Chai Chuanxin emerged from a stone wall with a狼狈 face, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and then without saying a word, he ran outside, cursing in his mouth: "I came too early, who knew that the entire mountain would collapse? If I had known this, I should have come later."
He used the magical power of虛實transformation to hide in the stone wall. At this time, the stone wall suddenly cracked and shook, and he was of course not feeling well, and directly suffered a heavy blow.
In a blink of an eye, only Zhang Chen was left in the underground tomb. Seeing this, Zhang Chen directly transformed into a stream of water, clinging to the foot of the stone wall and hiding well. The next moment, he heard an earth-shattering cracking sound, and then he saw the entire mountain collapsing, and countless碎stones smashed down overwhelmingly.
Fortunately, Zhang Chen transformed into a stream of water and avoided the attack by relying on the advantage of the stream of water. With the shaking of the earth, Zhang Chen's stream of water kept shuttling through the cracks in the stones, and soon came to the coffin of the Emperor's Daughter.
Strangely enough, within five meters around the Emperor's Daughter's coffin, it was propped up by the soft branches of the willow tree, and no碎stones fell down.
Zhang Chen glanced at the Emperor Daughter's coffin, not rushing to act. Instead, he transformed into a stream of water, reaching the bottom of the pond and revealing his true form, opening his Dharma eyes to begin reaping experience points.
[Experience +100]
[Experience +150]
[Experience +300]
[Experience +350]
…
A massive amount of experience points flooded in, making Zhang Chen squint his eyes in happiness. "This experience is mine, and this experience is also mine." Zhang Chen was happily collecting, but soon he discovered something was amiss.
Not far from him, there was a cluster of experience points labeled "500+". Zhang Chen was about to go and collect it when, unexpectedly, the experience points vanished into thin air.
"Huh?" Zhang Chen was stunned, even doubting his own eyes. How could experience points disappear?
Zhang Chen looked at the experience points to the side, but just as he was about to step forward to collect them, another patch of experience points suddenly disappeared.
"How can this be? Why are the experience points disappearing? Could someone be secretly stealing my experience points? Taking them away one step ahead of me?" Zhang Chen was completely stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Zhang Chen was somewhat bewildered by this situation and could only ask his golden finger: "Why are my experience points disappearing? Where did that large patch of experience points go? ? ?"
[All experience points that have been dropped for more than a year will automatically disappear if no one picks them up.] The golden finger provided its explanation.
Zhang Chen was taken aback upon hearing this, then suddenly understood:
"That makes sense. If all experience points, once dropped, didn't disappear but were preserved, then this place, existing for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, wouldn't the experience points be piled up to the brim?"
This was more in line with common sense!
After all, there were hundreds of mysteries in this place.
Zhang Chen looked at the constantly disappearing experience points, a clever thought occurring to him. He quickly stepped forward to collect the experience points, lest more of them disappear. Only after he had collected all the experience points did he breathe a sigh of relief:
[Points: Five Million]
With hundreds of mysteries gathered here, the dropped points were undeniably plentiful.
Five million was definitely a windfall.
Zhang Chen looked at the five million experience points, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes. His skills could continue to be upgraded.
Of course, what was most anticipated was that black skill. According to Zhang Chen's estimation, that skill was very likely dropped by the Curse Demon God.
Zhang Chen shifted his gaze away from the points, then looked at the skill with both eyes. He saw that this skill was different from all the skills he had encountered before.
This skill was exceptionally large!
It was the size of a basketball, and the entire skill was pitch black, looking very gloomy and terrifying, tainted with a trace of ominous aura.
"Could it be like the Soul-Snatching Chains, yielding a strange skill again?" Zhang Chen stepped forward and directly picked up the skill.
[New skill discovered. Would you like to collect it?]
"Collect."
Zhang Chen hurriedly said.
[New Skill: Raven's Tongue]
[Note 1: This skill is a passive skill, cannot be upgraded, and is randomly triggered when it is closely related to you.]
[Note 2: Good things don't come true, but bad things do. Please don't say bad things about yourself.]
"Damn it! I've been tricked!" After seeing the introduction of this skill, ten thousand grass mud horses galloped through Zhang Chen's heart.
You can't say anything bad about yourself? Good things don't come true, but bad things do? Is this really a skill? This is simply picking up a hot potato.
"Is it too late for me to not want this skill now?" Zhang Chen felt a headache coming on.
In this lifetime, people have to deal with countless people every day and say countless words. Who can guarantee that they won't say the wrong thing?
This is not a skill, this is a negative buff, Zhang Chen doesn't want it at all.
"When I saw this skill for the first time, I knew something was wrong, but I still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that I could get the same benefits as the Soul-Snatching skill, and thinking that this was just a special skill, but I really got tricked." Zhang Chen stomped his feet in anger.
What could he do? He was also very helpless!
At this time, the golden finger directly responded: [Dear host, once a skill is collected, it can never be eliminated. Unless the host collects a powerful blessing-type skill, it can offset the negative blessing brought by this skill.]
The system's voice was very gentle, but the smile on Zhang Chen's face disappeared, and his happiness was gone.
"Damn it, I've stepped into a pit." Zhang Chen muttered to himself with a curse.
Since things had come to this, Zhang Chen could only helplessly accept the facts and try to remedy his mistakes.
Zhang Chen looked at his golden finger panel, thinking about whether the Light of the True God could offset the negative blessing, and at the same time, he should bless his skills and upgrade himself.
The first skill, Light of the True God, fourth level, upgrading actually required two million points, Zhang Chen directly skipped it. The power of the Light of the True God was enough for him at the moment. Upgrading it would only improve the application of the Light of the True God, and it would not upgrade the power of the Light of the True God.
What he lacked now was a means of attacking people.
The second-level Dragon Qi required 200,000 points, but the role of this skill was to control beasts. He hadn't encountered any monsters yet, and he couldn't use it for the time being.
The third skill, Blood Control Technique, first level, the current function is to transform into a vampire bat, the required experience points are one million, Zhang Chen was immediately moved.
"It's time to upgrade the Blood Control Technique." Zhang Chen muttered to himself.
But he was not in a hurry to upgrade, but continued to look at the other skills, making various comparisons and choosing the best skill.
The fourth skill, Water Control Technique, upgrading required 100,000 points, the required points were not many, so it could be considered.
The fifth skill, Soul-Snatching Chains, required ten million skill points, Zhang Chen directly skipped it.
The sixth skill, Contemplation and Forgetfulness, required 400,000 points, Zhang Chen also directly skipped it, this skill did not greatly increase his current combat power.
The seventh skill, Qi Refining Technique, Zhang Chen's eyes moved after seeing the Qi Refining Technique: "The Qi Refining Technique must be upgraded. If I want to cultivate immortality in the future, this Qi Refining Technique is my foundation. The key is that the Qi Refining Technique has an amplification effect on various skills, and the Qi Refining Technique is related to my future skill upgrades, so I will try to max it out this time."
The fourth-level Immobilization Talisman, wanting to upgrade to the fifth level required 800,000. The fifth-level Town Talisman, wanting to upgrade to the sixth level, upgrading actually required two million! He didn't dare to click it!
The points would be gone for the most part with one click.
The other skills, such as Divine Mist Transformation, Fire Aversion Talisman, Wind Control Talisman, etc., did not require many points, and might be able to play a big role at critical moments, so it was worth upgrading them.
Especially the Fire Aversion Talisman, which could immunize against flames. Once upgraded, it would give him a great advantage when facing Zhong Xiang.
